Episode 189 – What We DON’T Want in Metroid 6!
10Now that we’ve had a few years to chew on Metroid Dread, the gang gets together to discuss Metroid 6, and more specifically things we DON’T want to see Metroid 6 do. Topics on the talking block that we don’t want Metroid 6 to do include: abandon the Metroid Suit and its abilities; bring back the Pulse Scan in its current version, particularly when it could be replaced by a new-and-improved X-Ray Scope; limit exploration and guide you too directly where to go; feature the Power Bomb as the final powerup acquired; have lore information, like that found in the Dread Reports, not be available in the game again; and so much more!
All this, PLUS some quick NFL and NHL chat and some Halloween plan discussions! Come hang with us as we look forward to what’s next!
